About Jameco Electronics

Jameco has been a leading electronic components distributor for over 45 years. We've helped millions of customers from businesses to educational institutions to hobbyists and along the way we're proud to have built a solid reputation for great prices, great selection, and a great source for hard-to-find electronic components.

Jameco's buying expertise allows even the smallest company or individual to enjoy the same competitive pricing edge typically reserved for the highest volume buyers.

Jameco is the only electronic components distributor to give customers a true choice. Jameco offers more than 30,000 of the industry's most popular name brand components but what sets us apart is a large selection of in-stock house and generic brands that are typically priced 15% to 25% less, and an ever changing selection of Special Buys with a savings of 30% to 50% and more. Jameco is the kind of company that you want to work with.
HISTORY
Jameco has more than 45 years of consistent, profitable operation. The company was founded in 1974 in Silicon Valley by Dennis Farrey, who was committed to bringing his customers great values in electronic components. This commitment still holds true today.

Jameco's first promotion was a 1/3-page advertisement in Radio Electronics. Jameco has years of experience in dealing directly with manufacturers throughout the world, including Asia. 

Because of its direct connection and long history with these manufacturers, the company gets the lowest possible price for the highest quality products.
